Making Air Compressor using Car parts

Let's Learn Something: Project no.17
Good day guys :)
Today i will show to you how i make this compressor that comes from the used truck and car parts that can turn into working compressor
this is also easy to carry and fast to full the tank :)

Thank you guys now i put air intake filter and i put another tank for oil :)

[@joecook3223]

Hey man we did this on our farm ute when the ac gas leaked out, just put air fittings on the outlet of the compressor, with a pressure switch on the clutch at 120 psi, and man do they move some air! No need for a tank on that thing, blowing up tyres with the engine at 1200rpm, the pressure switch keeps cutting out cause the compressor keeps up so easy! Might be worth trying just one compressor and seeing if you can make it rev a bit faster, cause they make awesome pressure, but they do like some speed.

It's a good video, but if it's meant to be teaching then he should have included something about checking the welds to make sure the integrity of the tank wasn't compromised. Pressure vessel explosions are not fun.

No es tan simple....hay cosas que en el vídeo no te van a aparecer, en estos compresores el enfriamiento viene por parte del r134 que usan para refrigerar con lo cual se mantienen en temperatura de trabajo, en este caso no tenes nada que los refrigere por ende a los dos minutos ya los tenés que pelan del calor (te lo digo porque yo ya probé uno) hay que hacerle un sistema de enfriamiento sea por una bomba de aceite con radiador y un forzador con un bulbo de temperatura para mantenerlos en temperatura de trabajo.....

[@johannienel1]

Great idea welding a compressed air cylinder, these things are certified for a reason. I would stay far far away!

[@murhafsukkar9555]

I agree. I'm a mechanic and don't feel good about it

[@lazyh-online4839]

A failure would likely just result in a loose hose or something. These can be pressure tested to about the same certainty as pro certification by using a pressure washer to pressurize the tank and verify its "stability" at higher pressures.

[@ridermak4111]

I’ll add this suggestion only because I haven’t seen it yet. The adjuster/tensioner pulley needs to be on the out-travel side (not the pulling side) of the motors’ drive pulley so the belt engages much more diameter of the drive pulley. Less than 90 degrees contact that you have now is not good. Then switch to a slightly longer belt for 180 degrees of engagement. 🤙

[@dansw0rkshop]

You can tell the two compressors are not running the same speed. (The camera frame rate makes them spin funny directions)

[@Infinion]

So would it be better to swap the left compressor and the AC motor's positions? Then at least the tensioner is on the out-travel side and the compressor takes advantage of the shallow belt angle with its larger pulley diameter.

[@danw1955]

Nice project... unfortunately, those axial refrigeration compressors circulate a certain amount of oil in a closed AC system and they won't last too long as an air compressor because they eventually push all the oil out of the compressor and into the tank. (I've built a couple of these back in my younger days). The only ones that will work for quite a while, are the older Ford piston type compressors since you can stand them upright and keep the majority of the oil in the compressor. Other than that, nice project, and good to see you used a decent tank that won't blow up when you get a fair amount of pressure in it.😁👍 *EDIT:* Sorry, didn't see all the other comments before I posted this about the oiling. It would still be to your advantage to use regular old piston type compressors, since it will be impossible to keep moisture and contamination out of these axial units. They're just not designed for an open system like this, but you'll find that out eventually.😉

[@teravolt6113]

You mean Harrison A6 compressor? Yes, it has a dedicated sump and pump for the oil. Just like the modern Seltec TM-31 or Denso 10P30C (sump is only used in bus/coach applications nowadays).

[@ica330]

I think this guy 24 hours play with mechanical...maybe some people have imagination about this and impossible to do it....but this guys make it become possible...really amazing work...

[@jesseparkhurst3037]

I like the idea, its cool seing people make things from "junk". Just a couple things to be cautious of it corrosion on the inside of the air tank. The old tanks can be rusted inside which makes them weak. And the pipe that was welded into the tank looked to be galvanized. Welding fumes from welding galvanized metal can be pretty bad for you.

[@karm65]

You trust your welding way more than I trust welding on a preacher vessel. I am going to put this in the don't try it at home kids file.

[@kaisersose5549]

As far as pressure vessels go, that one's way over safety specs for the U.S. Even if it does fail, it's not going to be catastrophic with a whole 120 PSI or so. With that volume, the pressure drops to a level that's safe to handle without PPE in just a few seconds when there's a hole the size of a straight pin.

Dad built an air compressor in the mid seventies using a old Ford A/C compressor and powered it with a 1/3 HP motor from a discarded washing machine,used a small tank scavenged from a piece of equipment but don't remember now what from,used a pressure switch from a water pump to turn it off and on,was still working good when we sold it 12 years ago.

You need a larger pulley on your motor. Those air compressors can spin 2000 rpms no problem

[@doddgarger6806]

More, 5000 at least

[@fabianojones4253]

So wot are U saying? IT NEEDS a Bigger Motor.. like a higher capacity motor..?? Seeing that it's a 1.5Kw..

[@wrathe7398]

@@fabianojones4253 no. Use the same motor. Just change the pulley size on the motor. It changes the gear ratio to spin the compressor faster and building air pressure much faster. Do a Google search for pulley size tool and type in your sizes of pulleys to get the desired rpm. It works great. Plus you will be much happier with the compressor

[@TacticalHardlinePro]

Robert Fisk it’s a great idea in theory but no oil for the compressors is a recipe for disaster, and those welds will CERTAINLY break and that steel tank will send shrapnel at the speed of sound in every direction and kill anything in a 20 foot radius without giving any warning before doing so. This is a dangerous way to save $300 at Home Depot.

[@michalziomek1276]

@@jammdoe1873 so you get oil in the air from compressor?

[@Oddman1980]

I bet this compressor is a lot quieter than one you could buy at the hardware store. And if one of those compressors fails, another one can be had at a junkyard, instead of replacing the entire machine. The only thing I'd add, is a drain plug in the bottom of the tank. Compressing air will cause water to condense in the bottom of the tank, and you don't want it to start rusting on the inside!

The cylinders are not lubricated at all and the compressors will not work for a long time. Make the same oil injection as the engine from this compressor, and return the oil to the tank from the sealed oil separator through the capillary tube. At the same time, pressure relief in the oil separator will facilitate starting the motor without pressure in the system. You will need to install a check valve after the oil separator.
